#80 (Oct 2016) Doctor Strange

Award-winning British actor Benedict Cumberbatch makes his debut in the Marvel Studios Cinematic Universe as Master of the Mystic Arts, Dr. Stephen Strange. It might be his first superhero role but the British actor is no stranger to playing a slightly flawed but lovable lead character, as he does in the hugely popular TV series, Sherlock. He has also been in movies such as The Imitation Game, 12 Years A Slave and Star Trek Into Darkness.

In the October 2016 issue of F*** Magazine, Cumberbatch tells us what it’s like to play a superhero, what made him want to take on the role and why he loved filming in Nepal.

'Spider-Man: Into The Spider Verse' isn’t just the best Spider-Man movie that nobody asked for - it’s one of the best Spider-Man movies ever made, period. It’s also a top contender for best animated film of the year.

Recommended? If you want to see some of the best visual effects put on screen since Lord Of The Rings, yes. But the muddled plot never quite lives up to its promise. So be warned - you might be disappointed if you’re in it for the story.
